Trading: Swing set for Lawn Mower



We are finding good reasons to laugh.

A few weeks ago we took our lawn mower to the shop to get fixed. The self-propelled went out and the blade needed to be sharpened. We thought it would be a quick fix. However, this past weekend we called and they still were not done with it, meaning we had to rent a lawn mower for a second time. We have to laugh now because the cost of repairing the one in the shop and the rental fees have now exceded the cost of a new lawn mower.

Also, we're selling this beautiful, solid wood swing set (pictured above). It's an "L" shaped set with 2 slides, 1 trapeze bar, a fireman's pole, monkey bars and a covered tarp area which the slides extends from. We had numerous inquires on this swing set and 5 people called for directions saying they were coming to look at it and buy.......when? Jeremy and I hung around the house the majority of the weekend for the "buyers" who oddly, never showed. We just laugh now when someone says they are coming for the swing set. We'll believe it when we see it.

So to wrap this up. If you have a working, self-propelled lawn mower, with bag, then we'll trade you our AMAZING swing set.

*If you have a riding lawn mower you're willing to trade then Jeremy will love you even more. He really would like one for our 1/3 acre lot...........
